2nd lesson and thoughts and stuff

I found the hypnosis really effective! Not only did i have the free association thing going on when i was under but when i was out of it i felt a lot more focused and attentive! I don’t have my drawing gear up with me but i’m going back home at the weekend so i think i’ll grab it because i really fancied drawing what i’d imagined yesterday! I dunno if my drawing would be half as good as how things looked in my head but nevertheless! I haven’t drawn anything in ages too so it’d be grand to start that off again! I was pretty good at it when i was a kid but when i decided to get back into it a couple of years ago i remember i was constantly checking my work to see if it was ‘good’ instead of just chilling out and enjoying the activity!
Ooh I tried self-hypnosis earlier! It worked really well at first but my girlfriend rang and i got distracted, though i only realised once i was speaking to her that i was missing a couple of hours! Not only that, but i’d managed to find my way to my bed, despite trying the hypnosis thingy on my chair! Very interesting! So yeah, tis pretty useful if you want to go to sleep at 7pm but since i woke up i’ve forgotten what i was thinking about beforehand! From what i remember though i was experiencing something similar to what i had in the seminar, but just by closing my eyes and focusing what my body felt like and stuff. I think i have a Paul McKenna audiobook somewhere actually with a hypnosis part to it which i might check out. I feel as though i might find it more useful if there’s a voice of some sort to listen to! Edit: Although I’m still awake at 1:30am i’ve gotta say I feel more alert and focused than i have done in ages! I dunno if that’s because of specifically the hypnosis or the sleep itself, although I did feel similar after the the seminar on Tuesday. I’m just a bit worried now about when i’ll get to sleep!
I’m quite enjoying this blogging thing. I’ve read a bunch of blogs in the past and i think it’s mainly just because i’m trying to keep it a bit more casual and not worrying too much about it. I dunno what that makes it read like though, so sorry if this is annoying to read!
I’ve stumbled upon a cool website which apparently is all about ‘inspiring creative professionals’ which i’ve found really cool! There’s lots of blog articles and advice on developing creativity and time management and stuff like that! I’ve only looked at it briefly but i’m definitely going to check it out properly in the next few days! Here it is http://www.wishfulthinking.co.uk/blog/best-of-wishful-thinking/
